Unable to Edit List in Datasheet View in Microsoft SharePoint with Content Approval turned on
When choosing to edit a list in Microsoft SharePoint Datasheet View the list or view is read-only. You can observe this by seeing the message "This view is read-only." at the bottom of the datasheet.
The Microsoft SharePoint Content Approval setting has been turned on for the list. The Datasheet View control does not support making edits to lists that have Content Approval turned on.
Make your edits in Microsoft SharePoint Standard View or turn off Content Approval.
To turn off Content Approval in Microsoft SharePoint do the following:
- In the List select Settings
- Select List Settings
- Select Versioning Settings
- In the Content Approval section select Yes for "Require content approval for submitted items"

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
